Former Washington quarterback Michael Penix’s left arm has garnered headlines the past two days at Senior Bowl practices in Mobile, Alabama. Here’s a look at some of the video clips from Twitter.
Penix joined NFL Networks’ Move the Sticks show to discuss his season and and his future in the NFL. Projected as the 40th best prospect in the nation by Daniel Jeremiah, the touch shown by Penix will likely move him up the draft boards. At the end of the video the Husky legend threw up his “Dubs” and said “Go Dawgs”.

The trajectory of this deep ball is incredible as was witnessed by Washington fans 725 times the past two years.
Not many quarterbacks throw a prettier ball than Washington QB Michael Penix, Jr. This was the final throw of the entire early practice session on Day 1 of Senior Bowl week. Drops it right in the bucket to USC RB Marshawn Lloyd pic.twitter.com/Uu51JRv504

Former Washington head coach Kalen DeBoer got the “Plus One” treatment as Penix used his left arm to hold off DeBoer’s photo bomb attempt.

These dimes are nothing new to Washington fans and 14 victims last season, but it’s fun to watch the national media, no less.

Penix is on the screen for just a second, but here’s his connection with Jerry Rice’s son and former USC Trojan, Brendan Rice.

There’s a lot of buzz around Penix having watched him throw earlier in the day. Quite the growing horde for the Heisman runner up.
A lot of eyes here at the @seniorbowl on QB Michael Penix Jr.
Nice speed from W. Kentucky WR Malachi Corley on the 2nd throw. #TheDraftStartsInMOBILE pic.twitter.com/npNfsMRHrv
